description A compound cursor arrangement for use in a graphic user interface of a computer system is described. The compound cursor comprises an active part (38) which acts in conventional manner and is manoeuvred directly by user commands from an input device (22) such as a mouse or trackball. Accompanying the active portion (38) is a passive cursor (40) which follows the active cursor around the display when the separation between the two cursor parts exceed a theshold value (42). The function of the passive cursor (40) is to drag icons (34) selected by the active cursor (38) and deposited on the passive cursor, the active cursor the being freed for other tasks.
